Memristors are electric components that emulate the memory and computational properties of biological synapses by remembering the current that flows through them. Here, for the first time, the memristive properties of geopolymers, inexpensive ceramic materials manufactured at room temperature from alkaline activation of amorphous aluminosilicate precursors, are presented. It is demonstrated that geopolymers present all the fingerprints of memristors, and a physics-based model is proposed, which demonstrates that electroosmosis in the bulk geopolymer pores induces ion channels that foster change in the overall conductance of the bulk material, contributing to the observed memristive behavior. This model opens the door to a new category of porous electroosmosis-based bulk memristors. Synaptic functions such as short-term plasticity and long-term plasticity, as well as endurance and retention capabilities are also demonstrated. The reported findings pave the way to the use of geopolymers for low-cost applications in neuromorphic computing. 相似文献

Direct extraction of molybdenum from sulfate solution with synergistic extractants (mixture of D2EHPA and TBP) was studied in the rotation column. The influence of extractant concentration and initial pH of aqueous phase was studied in the bench scale experiments. The outcomes demonstrated that the synergistic solvent extraction enhances the constancy of the extracted complexes for transfer into the organic phase. In the continuous experiments, the effect of different operating parameters such as speed of agitation, inlet solvent flow rate and inlet aqueous flow rate on the holdup, mean drop size, drop size distribution, slip and characteristic velocities and extraction percentage were examined. Modified correlations were proposed for prediction of hydrodynamic parameters with consideration of reaction extraction condition in the rotation column. Furthermore, these correlations were compared with the experimental data. According to the results, the direct extraction of Mo (VI) from aqueous solution and sulfuric media with extraction efficiency of 90.4% was obtained at higher rotor speed (240 r·min-1 rpm) in this column. 相似文献

The optimal design for heat recovery steam generator (HRSG) should be chosen based on technical and economic considerations. Therefore, parameters that are related to thermodynamic and economic aspects should be considered in optimization approaches. It is worth mentioning that one of the significant issues in the HRSG design is the diversity of arrangements between various components (economizer, evaporator, and superheater), which absolutely affect the HRSG performance. According to these facts, in the present article, different arrangements of a dual pressure HRSG are analyzed, and the economizer at the high‐pressure level is divided into two parts; these arrangements are optimized by applying different optimization approaches to achieve the optimal configuration. These approaches include the reduction of gas pressure drop, the reduction of generated steam cost and the consideration of both approaches as the third approach. These three approaches are also considered to perform economic and thermodynamic optimization. With regard to the limitations of optimization such as the pinch and approach point, seven different configurations are considered. First, a comprehensive model is developed for calculating thermodynamic, heat transfer, and pressure loss. To perform a thorough optimization, both thermodynamic and geometric variables as well as diversity of various arrangements is considered using genetic algorithm. The results of the optimization study show that the best arrangement is not unique, and each arrangement has different characteristics. Hence, the best arrangement for the HRSG is chosen according to the importance of the objective functions. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

The general objective of this study was to evaluate the deviation between measured and estimated soil phosphorus (P) content,
over 3 years, in a permanent bio-diverse pasture system in Southern Portugal with grazing sheep, and subjected to annual,
differential P fertilization. The results can be a contribution to the development of practical and effective site-specific
management strategies to minimize pasture yield variation. The soil and pasture samples were taken from a 6 ha field and were
geo-referenced with RTK GPS. This procedure was carried out, each year, from March to May, according to the vegetative growth
of the pasture. In October of each year the field was fertilized in a differential manner, as a function of soil P concentration
measured at the end of the pasture growth cycle (May–June). Maps were developed in ARCGIS 9.3 considering: (1) the soil P
concentration and pH; (2) the average P plant uptake; (3) the differential P application; and (4) the extractable P. The significant
temporal variability of soil P concentration and pasture dry matter yield confirm the complexity of soil P dynamics in pastures
involving two biological systems: plant and animal, under Mediterranean conditions and the consequent difficulties in implementing
precision agriculture techniques. The results of this work indicate that 3 years of P variable-rate application rate were
not sufficient to obtain homogeneous and adequate levels of P in the whole field for crop production. Despite differential
P fertilization with the objective of obtaining homogenous values of soil P content in experimental field, the undulating
topography of the experimental field associated with the presence of grazing animals adds a notable short-range spatial variation
in nutrients that generally arises from heterogeneous excreta depositions. The small and positive final deviation between
measured and estimated P levels suggests the irregular and gradual release of P by the fertilizer over years, contributing
to an increase in soil P concentration. P input in fertilizer and removal in the crop greatly exceed all other inputs and
outputs. However, the pH effect on extractable P, the estimation of amounts of export/import by livestock, atmospheric deposition
or erosion/leaching losses are complex and justify more experiments to evaluate the confidence of long-term estimated P dynamic
balance before sustained decision making is possible for differential pasture fertilization and site-specific management strategy
implementation. 相似文献

This paper presents the seismic vulnerability and rehabilitation of a steel building with semi-rigid connections in Tehran. This 19-storey building with an asymmetric plan was constructed 30 years ago in three blocks. The qualitative vulnerability of the building was evaluated in the first step of the study, indicating its high seismic vulnerability. In the next step of the study, the quantitative vulnerability of the structure was investigated. The results show that the building was strong enough to resist gravity loads but the strength was not adequate for seismic loads. Finally, three seismic retrofitting methods consisting of concrete shear wall, steel shear wall, and steel bracing were proposed. The comparison of the three retrofitting alternatives in terms of architecture, implementation, and seismic performance showed the superiority of using the concrete shear walls over the two other alternatives. 相似文献

The present study deals with the multi-objective optimization for designing a combined gas turbine and multi stage flash desalination plant. In optimization approach, the exergetic, economic and environmental aspects have been considered, simultaneously. In order to achieve the optimal design, Multi-objective genetic algorithm (MOGA) is applied as a suitable optimization technique. The thermoenvironomic objective function is obtained by integrating the environmental impacts and thermoeconomic objective. By applying the optimization approach, this objective function is minimized, whereas system exergy efficiency is maximized. Moreover, equipment reliability using the state-space and the continuous Markov method is incorporated in optimization results to improve the products' cost values. The optimization results show that the cost of products and environmental cost impact are reduced by 13.4% and 53.4%, respectively, whereas a 14.8% increase happens in total exergy efficiency. Therefore, improvement in all objectives has been achieved using the optimization process, although the power and water productions have not changed much. Additionally, the sensitivity analysis shows the relationship between the fuel cost, pollution damage cost and the objective functions. 相似文献

Toxicological impact studies based on Escherichia coli bacteria in ultrafine ZnO nanoparticles colloidal medium 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
We report here preliminary studies of biocidal effects and cellular internalization of ZnO nanoparticles on Escherichia coli bacteria. ZnO nanoparticles were synthesized in di(ethylene glycol) (DEG) medium by forced hydrolysis of ionic Zn2+ salts. Particle size and shape were controlled by addition of small molecules and macromolecules such as tri-n-octylphosphine oxide, sodium dodecyl sulfate, polyoxyethylene stearyl ether, and bovine serum albumin. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray diffraction analyses were used to characterize particle structure, size, and morphology. Bactericidal tests were performed in Luria-Bertani medium on solid agar plates and in liquid systems with different concentrations of small and macromolecules and also with ZnO nanoparticles. TEM analyses of bacteria thin sections were used to study biocidal action of ZnO materials. The results confirmed that E. coli cells after contact with DEG and ZnO were damaged showing a Gram-negative triple membrane disorganization. This behavior causes the increase of membrane permeability leading to accumulation of ZnO nanoparticles in the bacterial membrane and also cellular internalization of these nanoparticles. 相似文献

There are a large number of gas turbine power plants in the south of Iran that could be exploited to produce fresh water and overcome water shortage. In order to combine gas turbine power plant and thermal desalination, heat recovery steam generator (HRSG) is required for producing steam. Few papers in literature have investigated this combination and none of them has considered HRSG in their studies. Thus, in this paper, multi-effect evaporation thermal vapor compression desalination (ME-TVC) is coupled to gas turbine plant through HRSG. After performing a thorough thermoecnomic analysis, an optimization study is done in view of three approaches. The first and second approaches are single objective optimizations, which utilize two heuristic algorithms, namely, genetic algorithm (GA) and particle swarm optimization (PSO). The first approach is a global optimization problem, which completely optimize the combined system. The second one, as an innovative method, is a local optimization approach, which optimize HRSG and ME-TVC in two separate stages while the third approach is a multi objective optimization. Eventually, the results of the first and second approaches show that the minimum amount of objective function achieved by PSO is better, although the third approach presents a system with higher productivity. 相似文献

In order to understand the nature of nonlinearity in the in-plane shear behaviour of fibre reinforce composites (FRC), experimental data of such materials under loading cycles, involving loading, unloading, reversed loading and unloading from reversed loading, are essential. Using the standard ASTM D 4255/D 4255 M method, it will require the fixture to be subjected to tension as well as compression. It has been proven in this paper that the standard ASTM D 4255/D 4255 M fixture is incapable of delivering such data as premature buckling is expected when the fixture is under tension, even though it claimed that the fixture could be loaded in tension as well as in compression. A cyclic rail shear fixture (CRSF) as a modified version of ASTM D 4255/D 4255 M fixture has been proposed in this paper and it has been designed and manufactured. The new fixture, which maintains all the capabilities of its standard counterpart, is truly capable of sustaining loading in tension as well as in compression so that specimens can be tested for loading and reversed loading. A series of experiments have been carried out using the new fixture to characterise the nonlinear in-plane shear stress–strain relationship of unidirectional fibre reinforced composite specimens under various cyclic loading conditions. Some new experimental data of this nature are presented in this paper, which are novel in contents and crucial in guiding the formulation of theoretical models for the nonlinear behaviour of in-plane shear for general applications. 相似文献

This study has been conducted to evaluate the effects of the vertical component of earthquake on the response of pure-friction base-isolated asymmetric buildings. The pure-friction base-isolated asymmetric building is idealized as a three-dimensional single-storey building resting on sliding supports. The sliding surface is modeled by interface rigid contact elements. The response of this idealized system subjected to three-component (including vertical component) and two-component (excluding vertical component) of earthquake excitations is investigated. As an example, the Northridge 1994 earthquake record is used on the structural model. The performance of asymmetric pure-friction base-isolated system is investigated with the help of peak response ratio of sliding to fixed base systems. It is observed that the vertical component of the strong earthquake excitation, significantly affects the response of pure-friction base-isolated torsionally coupled system. 相似文献
